Steve & I became friends several years ago when I became President of the Saint John Right to Life.He was a great reporter, keeping up to date with what was going on in the worldand asking others, such as myself, their opinions of what he had found. His “Respect for Life” showed in every thing he did and wrote. I shall truly miss him but my thoughts and prayers are for Steve’s family during this difficult time.
